However my architect informed me that in order to do multi unit for RS-3 such as a Duplex 60% of the properties on the block would need to be multi unit instead of single family homes, and I ran the numbers out to be 53% of properties are multi unit not meeting the 60% threshold.

@Nathan NoorlunRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Our lender has informed us that we need 12 months of rental history to use the actual rent for financing purposes, or we must rely on the appraiser's fair market short term rental value.
